Bug Josh Smith10-Jul-06 5:17 Josh Smith 10-Jul-06 5:17  Clicking on links in the Question Time area on the left takes you to the forum list, not the question you clicked on. :josh: My WPF Blog[^] -- moved at 11:37 Monday 10th July, 2006 Re: Bug Ravi Bhavnani10-Jul-06 5:20 Ravi Bhavnani 10-Jul-06 5:20  Yes, except for questions posted to articles. /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Music | Articles | Freeware | Trips ravib(at)ravib(dot)com Re: Bug David Stone10-Jul-06 5:28 David Stone 10-Jul-06 5:28  Looks like the forumid parameter isn't getting passed into those links. 225 years ago, we set an example for the rest of the world by creating a country where everyone could vote...

Ravi Bhavnani10-Jul-06 5:15 Ravi Bhavnani 10-Jul-06 5:15  It seems that article summaries are no longer displayed as tooltips in the "Last 10 updates" table. IIRC, they used to be there. /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Music | Articles | Freeware | Trips ravib(at)ravib(dot)com -- moved at 11:37 Monday 10th July, 2006 Re: (New site) bug? [updated - fixed] Chris Maunder10-Jul-06 5:36 Chris Maunder 10-Jul-06 5:36  By design. Do you want them back? I really wasn't sure if they were useful or just bandwidth wasters - all fixed cheers, Chris Maunder CodeProject.com : C++ MVP -- modified at 17:15 Monday 10th July, 2006 Re: (New site) bug? Shog910-Jul-06 6:52 Shog9 10-Jul-06 6:52  I, for one, really appreciated them. For instance, if there wasn't one, or it was gibberish, chances are the link wasn't worth clicking on. So, in a way, they saved bandwidth... ---- Scripts i’ve known... CPhog 1.0.0.0 - make CP better.

However, the right-hand side of the black borders is not alligned with the right-hand side of the header. Actually, it appears that the side borders are equally spaced from the edges of the orange background. It is the black header that appears to be off.

Note the right margin of Message Boards appears wider than the rest. However, looking at the source code, there doesn't appear to be any for Message Boards, so I'm not sure why that is happening. For the username, the links appear to be on separate lines causing the name to have the extra space. Finally, the Lounge double text that appears due to the CSS is now actually much worse than before. The full text is appearing now as opposed to just the end bit of it that's causing the scrollbar to appear. All in all, still a great job.

My current three-step solution is: 1) Print the main article. 2) Open one by one the interesting feedback messages and copy them to a word document. 3) Print the word document. Does somebody knows a better way? Maju Small issue with the new look -Dy9-Jul-06 23:07 -Dy 9-Jul-06 23:07  Hey, Just a small note to let you know that the home page is too wide. I've seen Chris has posted a message saying the new width support is 1024 - which is what I'm running at, but the home page is always too wide and needs scrolling. Should it matter: I'm running on XP pro (SP2), Firefox 1.5.0.4 Just a side note too, but the new layout isn't as easy to use as the old one, the 'my settings' / 'bookmarks' stuff that is now in the top right was easier to find at the top left, and the new menu running down the left has lost some key areas. It's nice it's been reduced, well, kinda, but I think it's been reduced too much. For example, 'STL' and 'projects' are missing, and I was always clicking on them! I understand that you need to support the most popular stuff, and you can't make everyone happy (and you have the most anal and hard to please audience in the world!) but I thought I'd provide my feedback for what it's worth all the same... - Dy Re: Small issue with the new look Bassam Abdul-Baki10-Jul-06 2:44 Bassam Abdul-Baki 10-Jul-06 2:44  If you notice, there appears to be two Lounge links at the top of the page causing the scrollbar to appear. That is a known issue that is being worked on.

Enhancement [modified] Christopher Duncan7-Jul-06 4:24 Christopher Duncan 7-Jul-06 4:24  I seem to recall Chris talking about enhancements a while back, so just in case there's actually some new goodies being planned, here's an idea for the pile. Don't know if it's been suggested before or not since there's no "official wish list" of which I'm aware. One of the forums I frequent has a tool tip style box pop up when you hover over any thread post, showing you the first couple of sentances. It's much faster than actually hitting the link, letting the page load, etc. and is a handy way to quickly spin through the forum and see what might be of interest and worth a more in depth read. Of course, given my recent comment about Chris pushing 40, this suggestion may well be met with a flamethrower and a couple of marshmellows. I suppose that just depends on how his posterior feels after all that bike bouncing in France...

I could have something that pops up a preview box as soon as you pass the mouse over any message link, thus saving an agonising mouse click. Or are you thinking that it would be more useful on the homepage summary of lounge links? And in the interest of not perpetuating such a fallacious and outlandish myth as to my impending age I choose not to bite. cheers, Chris Maunder CodeProject.com : C++ MVP Re: Enhancement Christopher Duncan7-Jul-06 4:51 Christopher Duncan 7-Jul-06 4:51  Hey, what's the fun in life if you can't perpetuate a few myths? They way this site does it, it pops up the tool tip on any lounge link. I'm assuming that these tool tips are cached when the page is loaded, as there's no "load time" - they pop up instantly. It probably sounds trivial, but given the page load time on any busy site it really is a significant performance enhancement for the user. For instance, if a post has 50 replies, you can mouse over and then just read the 5 that have something to say instead of doing 50 page loads. Since I'm not a web guru, I don't know what would be involved, so I don't know the benefit to pain and suffering ratio to implement. Just occurred to me today as I was on the other site & thought I'd pass it on. Oh, and sorry for posting in the wrong place, didn't realize this stuff belonged here... Author of The Career Programmer and Unite the Tribes Re: Enhancement Shog97-Jul-06 4:46 Shog9 7-Jul-06 4:46  You've seen the Preview View, right?

Load up Firefox and Greasemonkey and install this script: http://www.shog9.com/greasemonkey/scripts/MsgPreview.user.js [^] Then refresh a forum (in Message View - pointless, i know, but this is a UI proof of concept).

But like I told David elsewhere, the menus and tooltips appear under advertisements. Also, it would be nice if the tootip width was half the width of FireFox or the desktop.

This is supposed to be fixed in a future version of Gecko, but there have been performance problems holding it back. I'll look into it though. The tips aren't supposed to be any wider than the forum bit of the page though, so i'm not sure how you're getting them into the ads unless you have your window fairly narrow (and not scrolled). ---- Scripts i’ve known...

However, with the new stylesheet that Chris just added, that problem appears to be gone. However, the tooltip size appears to start prematurely (a few pixels to the left of the thread), but ends exactly at the end of the thread width. You may want to look into that instead. Good job.

Is there possible to bookmark forum posts. or just enable Bookmarks for FORUMS also... This might be more useful to watch certain posts/message in a forum..
